Up for sale is a very nice 2004 Mazda 6 Sedan with the sport package. This car has only 54,041 original miles and you are buying from the original owners. It was purchased in August of 2004 from Modern Motors in Thomaston, CT. This car has never seen typical New England sand and salt. It goes into storage every November and doesn't come back out until the roads are swept. It sits under a car cover with a battery tender on it while in storage. The only reason I am getting rid of it is because we do not use it anymore. It comes with two sets of wheels, the first ones are the factory 17" alloys that I wrapped in new snow tires if someone decides to use them for that (they have no miles on them). They were used from Town Fair Tire to our house. The second are the ones in the last picture, which are Konig with BF Goodrich G/Force Supersports Z-rated with about 8,000 miles on them. The car came stock with cloth interior and I had a leather kit professionally installed. I also had some light tasteful modifications done to the car, as follows: 20% tint all the way around, Tein S lowering springs and upper antisway bar, AEM cold air intake, genuine Mazda chrome gas door and clear front corners. The rest of the car is 100% stock. (I still have all the stock parts if wanted ) I also had the shifter linkage replaced at 50,000 miles because I heard they had design flaws and would break at around 60,000 miles at the fire wall and leave you unable to shift. The car from day one has always had oil and filter changed every 3,000 miles or every 6 months which every came first with genuine Mazda filter and Castrol full synthetic oil. This is a great car and is very sharp and sporty yet practical! The four cylinder engine gets very good fuel economy and the five speed and clutch are awesome. The car feels the same as the day I drove it off the lot. The only body work that has been done on this car has been the front and rear bumper due to people in parking lots. There are two small dings almost side by side on the passenger side rear door and also one on the drivers side door under the door handle from other people opening there doors into mine in parking lots. There is also one on the passenger side of the hood, also from other people. There is one small scuff on the bottom and top drivers side of the front bumper and scuffs under the front bumper (not visible) due to its height. The car has minimal chips on the front due to normal driving. I was going to have the dents pulled but they could not guarantee the paint wouldn't spider wed, so I didn't have it done. On a scale from 1-10, this car is a 9.5 on the exterior! The interior is in perfect shape. AC and heat work great, everything inside works as it should. Car has never been smoked in. Every time I take it out of storage I have it professionally detailed with Ardex chemicals. I also replace the break pads due to rusty rotors. All this will be up to the new owner if desired. Mileage may change if someone decides to test drive the car, if not that is the exact mileage. The car is not being driven. Vehicle is for sale locally, so I reserve the right to end the auction at any time. This is also a no reserve auction. With that in mind, only bid what you are willing and have to pay. Do not show up after the auction and try to negotiate. Clear title in hand! This car is a wonderful car and will give someone much more happiness as it as given to me as well as many more years. Call, text or email with any questions about the car. 203-805-1282 Thanks - Andrew

Recharge Wrap-up: BYD sales surge, new Mazda MX-5, plug-in VW Passat
Mon, Jul 7 2014BYD has enjoyed a tremendous leap in sales since last year, according to Want China Times. Sales from January to April were ten times that of the same period last year, with much of the credit going to government subsidies for clean cars. BYD claims, though, that battery production is limiting the number of vehicles it sells, and that by increasing that production capacity, it will see even more success. BYD's Qin plug-in hybrid, introduced in December, has already sold 4,500 units with another 8,000 orders already placed. Read more here. Mazda will reveal the fourth generation of its MX-5 roadster in September. To celebrate the car's 25th anniversary, the all-new two-seat convertible will debut during simultaneous private events in Spain, Japan and the US on September 3 and 4. Furthermore, the new Miata will be the center of a more public event in Barcelona on September 6. For fans in the US, Mazda will hold a Miatas at Mazda Raceway event from September 5 to 7. The 2016 MX-5 promises to continue to offer a lightweight, balanced design for fun and efficiency. The new Volkswagen Passat will feature a plug-in hybrid version. Volkswagen confirmed the Passat PHEV for Europe at the model's unveiling at the Volkswagen Design Centre in Potsdam, Germany. The plug-in Passat uses a 154-horsepower TSI engine and an 80-kilowatt electric motor for a total output of 208 horsepower. With a full charge, it can travel up to 31 miles on electricity alone. All versions of the eighth-generation Passat use stop-start and regenerative braking. Read more at Green Car Congress. BBC warns that the costs of charging an electric vehicle in the UK could surpass those of fueling a gasoline engine. Not so fast, says The Green Car Website. While the BBC cites charging services like Charge Master introducing fees for rapid charging making it cost about as much per mile to drive as traditional internal combustion engines. The Green Car Website points out that most people usually charge at home for much less, that paying for rapid charging is still not that expensive and that the BBC article misses the point about EVs, anyway.

2014 Mazda6: Introduction
Thu, 30 May 2013An Extended Stay With The Sexy Six
The new-for-2014 Mazda6 sedan is more than just a pretty face. For Mazda, it marks the company's best effort yet at competing in the highly competitive midsize sedan segment, all the while staying true to the brand's core value of offering high levels of driver involvement above all. We certainly came away impressed after our first drive of the sleek Six in France last fall, and we knew right from the start that this would be a car we'd want to spend a lot of time with back here at home.
So with that in mind, the folks at Mazda graciously agreed to loan us the fully loaded Soul Red tester you see here for a one-year stay in the Autoblog long-term garage. Because of how important this car is to the segment, and to Mazda as a brand, we know there's going to be a lot to talk about it over the next 12 months. Right now, though, allow us to introduce you to the newest member of our long-term family.
This map reveals the cleanest vehicles based on location
Thu, Apr 28 2016Naysayers love to point out how dirty the electricity grid mix is when it comes to charging electric vehicles. Curmudgeons are eager to jump into any conversation about EVs to enlighten the lucky listeners about how plug-in cars contribute to pollution, sometimes even throwing in a dash of climate-change denial for good measure. (Thanks, buddy. Pray, tell me more about the plight of oppressed SUV owners.) Unless someone buys an EV just because they think they're cool (which, yeah, they often are), they probably have at least a passable understanding of their environmental pros and cons. As many EV owners are already aware, location has a lot to do with any particular plug-in car's carbon footprint. Still, there's always more to know, and knowledge is not a bad thing, especially if one uses it to do the right thing. That's why this handy-dandy map from Carnegie Mellon University is so interesting. CMU researchers have compiled information about the lifecycle greenhouse gas emissions of various EVs based on where they're charged, as compared to gasoline-powered vehicles. The researchers looked at the Nissan Leaf, Chevrolet Volt, and Prius Plug-In Hybrid versus the gasoline-dependent Toyota Prius hybrid and the stop-start-equipped Mazda3 with i-ELOOP and compared grams of CO2 emitted per mile. CMU takes into account the grid mix, ambient temperature, and driving patterns. CMU takes into account the grid mix based on county, as well as ambient temperature and driving patterns in terms of miles traveled on the highway or in the city. For instance, if you drive a Nissan Leaf in urban areas of California, Texas, or Florida, your carbon footprint is lower than it would be if you were driving a standard Toyota Prius. However, if you charge your Leaf in the Midwest or the South, for the most part, you've got a larger carbon footprint than the Prius. If you live in the rural Midwest, you'd probably even be better off driving a Mazda3. Throughout the country, the Chevrolet Volt has a larger carbon footprint than the Toyota Prius, but a smaller one than the Mazda3 in a lot of urban counties in the US. The Prius and Prius Plug-In are relatively equal across the US. Having trouble keeping it straight? That's not surprising. The comparisons between plug-in and gasoline vehicles are much more nuanced than the loudest voices usually let on.
